Lads like Markie, 11TopTilYouDrop, WoundTight and Serge Protector know that I am really into chemistry and geology, as well as hand-selecting ultra-stellar, otherworldly exotic tone wood for PRS Wood Library Ltd Run Artist Packages to rock The Dusty Plains of The Wild West in Riverside, CA. Check out this Killer Quilt McCarty 594 Obsidian Beast From The East, cooked up back in February, at PRS in Wonkaville, MD, with JC Cullen (he's a maniac; that one)!
The Beast's Obsidian finish takes her name from extrusive igneous rock, produced when molten-hot lava blows loose from a volcano, then cools rapidly with minimal crystal growth. High viscosity. Polymerization; and a few ice coldies at The Jetty on Kent Thunder Island mean we have 1 of 10 for the world (just 3 remain)! Private Stock-style Coco Bolo fretboard, supple Indian Rosewood Neck, and sultry Mother of Pearl Bird inlay, along with the latest and greatest 5815 pickups, just might cause you to burst into tears upon discovering her in your rock n' roll hands.
John Mayer says the McCarty 594 is the best new axe he's played in years and regularly rocks the axe on the road with The Grateful Dead. What do you guys think of the selector switch on the horn of the beast?
